After I drive the car for a lil bit about 45 min then ill shut it off to go shopping for somthing. When I come back it cranks over but wont fire up. So I give it another hour be for I try to start it again. And I starts right up? I have had a new crank case sensor put in and had the codes pop up only once for a cam shaft positioning sensor, now that code doesnt come up. I did not replace the cam shaft positioning sensor. Any help would help I have been to four places and they cant figure out the problem.

First thing I would do is get the computer (OB2) scanned. This will make it easier to help in the diagnosis. Most auto part stores will do this for free. When you get the codes, write them down and let me know what they are. There are many problems that could create this symptom and without speculating for hours let's try this out first and I'll be happy to help you out in finding the problem.

Thanks, look forward to your reply
